Today is the day.SCJ highlights in several installmentsI will do so. Today.Day 1 and Day 2."It is.

Highlights of Day 1

On the first day (July 18: Saturday), we will gather at Tokyo Station at 9:30 in the morning and head to Miura Beach, where we will stay overnight, with lunch on the way.

For Japanese students, such things as cleaning up, putting away used things, and being punctual are things they have taken for granted, but for children from overseas, such things are unheard of! I am sure that the children in other countries have never heard of such things!
